The Tiger stars will be joined by their Central League mates and the stars of the Inter-AC. The team will be coached by Garnet Valley headman Mike Ricci. Marple Newtown Head Coach Ray Gionta will serve as an assistant for the West team.
The East starts consist of the Del-Val League, Bonner and O’Hara, and will be led by Bonner coach Tom Oropeza.
